Frida Night Fights Tonight?

[Mr. Ryan]

dude, he was in A LOT more trouble a few rounds earlier.

it's ****ing boxing man, not knitting. boxers of the past would get pummeled worse than that and the ref would let it continue. the sport has definitely changed in that respect.

i say, let gonzalez go out on his shield. you dont think his pride was hurt tonight because the ref stopped it?

he was obviously pissed the ref stopped it.

I agree, but it's not like the damage sustained in the earlier rounds was completely erased because he had steadied the boat a little, he was getting his head pounded in. And the outcome was not even in question, it was one-sided from the opening bell.

When you look at old pros (and in Gonzalez's case, he is old before his time because of his style) against young pros, I look at his history and say this is a guy who has nothing to prove by taking an inordinate amount of abuse.

I understand his pride was hurt but if his body gets hurt it's the commission's fault because they have to protect fighters who are too brave for their own good. He has nothing to be ashamed of with his performance, he just shouldn't have been allowed to get his head beat in like that.

If I'm with the commissions and he's trying to apply for a license, I'd put all of the burden on him to prove he should still be boxing because after losing three straight and getting beaten like that can't be a positive omen.

damn after the oscar diaz tragedy i thought refs would be more careful shame on american boxing u pretty much have to show ur death certificate in order for them to stop the fight
u dont see this in other countries

[rambov]

What u think of the main event?
american puncher with a padded record vs the veteran julio gonzalez
i got gonzalez by ud but i wouldnt be surprised if he got robbed

Were you surprised? Gonzalez should go to the local hospital and kept under observation.

If cloud took the effin time to make some shots to the body happen, this fight would have been over earlier

not really black dude looked slow and powerfull typical puncher gonzalez did the boxing
i just overrated gonzalez preparation he clearly wasnt in the best shape
anyway this black guy reminds me of lacy he would get defeated by the best in the division like erdei
but he would defeat tarver and give dawson a good scrap lose a close ud

you would probably be crying if you watched fights pre 1960. you would be screaming, "STOP THE FIGHT!!!"

You haven't been accused of being "bright" in this lifetime I take it...... While you might think it's "cool" to see a guy "go out on his shield," the general public and legislators tend to take quite a dim view of such things (especially when they occur on live TV). So, if you actually enjoy watching the sport of boxing, you don't like to see a fighter being left in unnecessary danger in a clearly un-winnable situation.

This kid (black guy)definitely needs to work on a couple of things like his defense and also how to fight on the inside and how to effectively attack the body

You must know that Gonzalez is a gate keeper right?

yeah but i expected more from the very first mexican 175 champion
the guy who upseted dariusz mcshsomething
plus he said in an interview he was training with librado andrade and enrique ornelas so i expected a better performance
and the black kid is being rushed into a title shot this is the first test he passes and he is already the number 1 ibf contender

i find it hilariously ironical that you're telling this to me yet sport a George Foreman avatar who was one of the most fierce heavyweights of all time. he used to beat the pulp out of guys, or are you unaware of that fact?

hypocrite...

I will say that if he was fighting anyone else on the same level as G the fight would have been over sooner. He took some incredible shots to the head.

fight was over the 3 rounds earlier its just that the ref was too damn incompetent
and i thought the chicago comission was one of the best
